When you buy a new car, you should check the date code on the tires to see when they were made, especially if you are buying last year's model. The car manufacturer does not provide the warranty for the tires like the rest of the car. In fact, there is no guarantee that the tires on a new car were even the same tires that the manufacturer installed in the factory. The car dealer could have switched the tires and still sell it as a new car.
